The V4L and DVB API's are there for a long time. however, up to now, no efforts were done to merge them to kernel DocBook. This patch adds the current versions of the specs as an unique compendium. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>

<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>These ioctls allow the caller to get or set multiple
|
|
controls atomically. Control IDs are grouped into control classes (see
|
|
<xref linkend="ctrl-class" />) and all controls in the control array
|
|
must belong to the same control class.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Applications must always fill in the
|
|
<structfield>count</structfield>,
|
|
<structfield>ctrl_class</structfield>,
|
|
<structfield>controls</structfield> and
|
|
<structfield>reserved</structfield> fields of &v4l2-ext-controls;, and
|
|
initialize the &v4l2-ext-control; array pointed to by the
|
|
<structfield>controls</structfield> fields.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To get the current value of a set of controls applications
|
|
initialize the <structfield>id</structfield>,
|
|
<structfield>size</structfield> and <structfield>reserved2</structfield> fields
|
|
of each &v4l2-ext-control; and call the
|
|
<constant>VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS</constant> ioctl. String controls controls
|
|
must also set the <structfield>string</structfield> field.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If the <structfield>size</structfield> is too small to
|
|
receive the control result (only relevant for pointer-type controls
|
|
like strings), then the driver will set <structfield>size</structfield>
|
|
to a valid value and return an &ENOSPC;. You should re-allocate the
|
|
string memory to this new size and try again. It is possible that the
|
|
same issue occurs again if the string has grown in the meantime. It is
|
|
recommended to call &VIDIOC-QUERYCTRL; first and use
|
|
<structfield>maximum</structfield>+1 as the new <structfield>size</structfield>
|
|
value. It is guaranteed that that is sufficient memory.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To change the value of a set of controls applications
|
|
initialize the <structfield>id</structfield>, <structfield>size</structfield>,
|
|
<structfield>reserved2</structfield> and
|
|
<structfield>value/string</structfield> fields of each &v4l2-ext-control; and
|
|
call the <constant>VIDIOC_S_EXT_CTRLS</constant> ioctl. The controls
|
|
will only be set if <emphasis>all</emphasis> control values are
|
|
valid.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>To check if a set of controls have correct values applications
|
|
initialize the <structfield>id</structfield>, <structfield>size</structfield>,
|
|
<structfield>reserved2</structfield> and
|
|
<structfield>value/string</structfield> fields of each &v4l2-ext-control; and
|
|
call the <constant>VIDIOC_TRY_EXT_CTRLS</constant> ioctl. It is up to
|
|
the driver whether wrong values are automatically adjusted to a valid
|
|
value or if an error is returned.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>When the <structfield>id</structfield> or
|
|
<structfield>ctrl_class</structfield> is invalid drivers return an
|
|
&EINVAL;. When the value is out of bounds drivers can choose to take
|
|
the closest valid value or return an &ERANGE;, whatever seems more
|
|
appropriate. In the first case the new value is set in
|
|
&v4l2-ext-control;.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The driver will only set/get these controls if all control
|
|
values are correct. This prevents the situation where only some of the
|
|
controls were set/get. Only low-level errors (⪚ a failed i2c
|
|
command) can still cause this situation.</para>

<entry>The total size in bytes of the payload of this

receive the payload. If <constant>VIDIOC_G_EXT_CTRLS</constant> finds

that this value is less than is required to store

|
the payload result, then it is set to a value large enough to store the
|
|
payload result and ENOSPC is returned. Note that for string controls
|
|
this <structfield>size</structfield> field should not be confused with the length of the string.
|
|
This field refers to the size of the memory that contains the string.
|

The actual <emphasis>length</emphasis> of the string may well be much smaller.
